I feel like this photo of masked, armed men pepper spraying a pastor protecting his community is going to be a defining picture of this moment in America for a long, long time.

It is now official, anyone who says "LGB without the T" is a confirmed fed and should be treated accordingly.

They’re just doing Lysenkoism for sexology now.
SCOOP: The NIH is moving to prohibit funded scientists, inside and outside the agency, from collecting data about gender, according to a draft policy I obtained. It’s part of the NIH’s aggressive crackdown on gender-identity research. www.chronicle.com/article/gend...
Gender Data Would Be Off-Limits Under Proposed NIH Policy
A draft rule would bar scientists funded by the agency from collecting data about gender identity, following other steps the administration has taken to restrict research on LGBT topics.

People posting about how they’ve never seen em dashes used before the rise of ChatGPT are really great at telling folks they’ve never read a book before.

Science is effectively dead in the US for at least the next 3½ years, and will then take another several years to even get started again. Canceled research doesn’t just uncancel itself, and scientists who find opportunity elsewhere won’t just come flocking back.

The damage is generational.
All scientific grant funding must now be approved by a political appointee and "demonstrably advance the President's policy priorities."

I wonder where innovation will happen in the future? It won't be in the US

Measles was effectively eliminated in the US.

Vaccines fucking work.

I will never forgive the people that voted for this, nor the greedy fucks trying to capitalize on this travesty.
As the US hits a 33-year high in measles infections, there is now a "race" to find a treatment for the disease.

One pharma company "is banking on a continuing decline in vaccination rates to fuel a need for measles treatments—and in turn, more investor interest"

The Race to Find a Measles Treatment as Infections Surge
The measles vaccine was so effective the disease was considered eliminated in the U.S., but a resurgence of outbreaks is spurring a need for drugs.

Since we can’t rely on the HHS, CDC, or FDA to say it, I will:

MAKE SURE YOU ARE VACCINATED AGAINST MEASLES. GET YOUR MMR.

The measles surge in the southwest is now the SINGLE LARGEST OUTBREAK since 2000 and the United States is now at the tipping point for the return of ENDEMIC measles.

I've always really liked therizinosaurs, so I've been watching the news on two-clawed Duonychus of Mongolia with much interest. Just published this article on it at BBC's Discover Wildlife .... www.discoverwildlife.com/dinosaurs/du... #dinosaurs #fossils #theropods
Bizarre new dinosaur with giant claws unearthed in Mongolian desert
The fossilised remains of the ‘two-claw’ animal reveal surprising diversity in an already strange group of dinosaurs.

@jama.com please as a physician member can there be some addressing about the current political situation? I'm really concerned about how much research and public health data is being stripped from the CDC and threat to ongoing grant research

4. That all changed yesterday. President Trump, in justifying his transgender military ban, leaned on a new argument for why such an action restricting the rights of transgender people was necessary: that transgender people are lesser human beings, dishonorable liars, and worse.

Science saves lives. Medicine saves live. Our longer lifespans are thanks to the backbreaking work of researchers who have dedicated their lives to the benefit of humanity.

To just toss it all aside in the name of politics is sickening.

As an MD, I know that at conception (see White House order wording, below) all humans begin as biological females, and then during development about half regress the ovaries and make male reproductive cells. At conception, though, zero have male reproductive cells. So, by law, we are all now female.
